[Collins] F.S. Collins 30S-1 amp $1800

[Al Parker]

Hi folks,
    This 30S-1 is part of an estate I am helping out the widow on.  Her OM, 
W4SLH, was a real Collins appreciator, he had one full S-line stn set up, 
with spares for just about every unit.  Most of that has been checked out 
and sold.  This unit, and one other 30S-1, are the last of the Collns eqpt. 
He was fastidious about equipment cleanliness as evidenced by the huge 
supply of swabs, pipecleaners, etc.
    I have been thru this amp and have checked it out on all 5 bands, 
getting 1kw+ out on each.  It is very clean inside.  It has a Peter Dahl 
"30S-1" HV transformer, but otherwise I think it is fully original.

    The price is $1800, and it must be picked up in Oriental, NC, about 30 
miles from New Bern, on the coast.
tnx, 73,

    (The second (spare?) 30S-1 is not as clean, but has the original hv 
xfmr.  It's not fully ckd out yet.  I suspect he hadn't "gotten to it" 
yet. )
